Discontinued wallpaper books have page after page of untapped potential for your home. I'll tell you a few of my ideas.

To use a page from one of these books, remove it with a straightedge and a utility knife, you may also want to cut off any damaged edges from people looking through the books.

Wallpaper's beautiful prints lend themselves easily to gift-wrap. Cut out a page and use it to wrap your gift. If you aren't comfortable using the actual page, make a color photocopy of it at your local copy center.

While you're at the copy center try laminating a few coordinating sheets to use as kitchen placemats. You could also do this if you had leftover paper from a decorating project for an instant compliment to your room.

Cut the pages to size and use them in your kitchen or bedroom as drawer liners.

Use your straightedge and utility knife to cut wallpaper page down to serve as a mat for your favorite pictures.

Cut sections from the wallpaper and frame them for inexpensive artwork in your home.
